    Have you actually made a serious offer?

    His set pieces are meh, but the question was how often does he take them? 50% of the time?

    He takes some corners and he probably took about 20-30% of the freekicks within shooting range.

    Dunno, but it sounds like you're not confident of keeping him

    Apparently he's not getting on the plane for your trip....

    Sounds like he's on his way.

    Certainly looks that way...
    Looks like he is going to be expensive as well...

    Final fee sweepstake

    My guess is £35m plus £8m in potential add ons, and it being reported as undisclosed so the Taffs save face.

    Stop looking for useless stats....

    He isn't the main taker. Rom and Mirallas would be the contenders.

    A couple of local hacks are adamant we've not even made a bid today, let alone had one knocked back.

    GOT say that a £40m bid has been rejected, so same as previous bid. So the breakdown you mention makes sense

    he's one of the main takers what you on about. He shares them with Mirallas, who only plays half the games (well even less the season before) and lukaku at most takes a few direct free kicks.

    A bit different to he doesn't take set piece

    Anyway, after all this looks like your going to get siggurdson and if he does superb then i'm going to be mighty smug (especially when barkley gets sold cause hes pony)

    Let's be clear. Barkley is only going to be sold as he's refused a new 5 year, 100k+ per week contract and is now entering the final year of his deal.

    Both the club and the manager would prefer that he stays. The choice is entirely his.

    That's been widely reported nationally, but locally the hacks are saying that whilst he is our No.1 current target, the supposed bid never happened.

    The player let the club know 45 minutes before he was due to meet up with them to go to the US that he didn't fancy it. He wants away and it's obviously going to happen now.

    Think it's all sticking in how the £40m is broken down as you said earlier.

    If he can go on to be fantastic for us then let @BobbyD.....why would I mind you being smug?

    Also Barkley was hardly flavour of the month for most of the season either.

    We bid £40m ages ago! Keep up lads <laugh>

    Him not travelling certainly means hes off though once the price is right. Probably more interested into a move to you rather than us. Would have been a good replacement for Mahrez tbh.

    Straight up £40m or in staged payments with add ons that they rejected?
